How do you know when the Holy Spirit is leading you to do something?

Question:
How do you know when the Holy Spirit is leading you to do something? For example in a remembrance meeting? What age is old enough?

Answer:
First Timothy 4:12 says, “Let no man despise thy youth.” Age should not hinder brothers from praising and praying publicly. We need to simply be taken up with the Lord and His love, and be sensitive to the Spirit’s leading in order to praise the Lord in prayer, give out a hymn, or read a Scripture in the remembrance meeting.

There is no gift for prayer or praise, for this privilege is given to every Christian, and should be as easy for us as taking a breath. A young brother with the freshness of the Lord’s love should feel free to offer praise just as readily as older brothers. Being concentrated on the Lord, as Mary was in John 12:3, is what is needed in order to be led of the Lord.
